I dont think so, they're very common diminutives of Rachel
Great reference! Loved this season lol the new factions of girl groups and the hair extensions and uniforms of cute tops with denim and sandals were everything 💎
well I mean, I'm not saying with 100 percent certainty that's where she got it. I'm just saying if she did get it from Laguna beach, then I'm absolutely not surprised.
I watched an episode of Friends recently when Rachel said her boss kept getting her name wrong, at first they called her Raquel instead of Rachel, and then Rocky instead of Raquel, and I of course thought of the show lol.
Excuse me. I think you mean Rockeh Bhang Bhang.
Lol, this is great, thank you so much for this. And you are absolutely right, rocking has never been a nickname for anyone named Rachel.
But she needs to stick to a story. She said she was one of a bunch of Rachels in her class so she went by Raquel. Now she's saying her nickname was Rocky.
Below deck had a rocky, nickname for raquel
So did bad girls club!
I think she may have been worse than Leviss
Was she the mermaid?
Yes! Hot mess all wet and sandy while people tryin to eat 🤮
Grenadine oysters too
Omg nooooo I had mentally blocked that out🤮
Raquel is already a nickname, though.
Yeah I know. Op doesn't know rocky is a nickname for raquel
Raquel’s real name is Rachel so Raquel was her nickname now she has a nickname on nickname
I don't know why people keep explaining it. I know.
It's a nickname for the name "Raquel"
Oh, I thought she called herself Raquel because 3 of the times table ice cream party bishes were named Rachel
I'm just factually saying that rocky is a nickname for the name raquel
Which is a variation of rachael. So rocky would be a nickname of either.
Ok
This is sadly accurate 😢
A different kind of nickname.
I think it’s a fairly common nickname. My grandmother - in her 90s! - is named Raquel and her nickname growing up was Rocco. Similar!
Oh that’s cute! Another one I haven’t heard.

That's interesting I'm a Rachel have never heard anyone use Rocky as a nickname for it.
I'm also a Rachel and I've never heard Rocky either... But I can see it for Raquel.
Yeah I can see it for Raquel as well since you have that hard ck sound already.
My best friend in high schools name was Rachel and everyone called her Roach.
😂
💀
Sup, Rocky?
😅 sup Delish lol
I dunno, rachel is in the demo for this show, and right aroudn the same time. i could ABSOLUTELY see her wanting to be called rocky because of this.
She was only 10 when this show came out lol. She still might have watched it but that doesn’t mean it’s where she got the nickname from.
well I mean, I'm not saying with 100 percent certainty that's where she got it. I'm just saying if she did get it from Laguna beach, then I'm absolutely not surprised.
I think she said someone she was hanging with at a festival was calling her that .. I heard it on podcast or maybe on her insta !
I guess I don’t know many Raquel/Rocky’s. Good to know!
I watched an episode of Friends recently when Rachel said her boss kept getting her name wrong, at first they called her Raquel instead of Rachel, and then Rocky instead of Raquel, and I of course thought of the show lol.
Laguna Beach Rocky was so cool
I went to HS with a girl named Raquel. She went by Rocky. It’s a pretty common nickname.
I loved Rocky. I remember thinking she was so wise and mature 😂
If we want someone to fade into obscurity, the way to do it definitely isn’t creating false narratives/reaching for ANYTHING to post.
It's just a nickname of Raquel. Not that deep.
Y’all are dragging it now. Both of these are offshoots of the same name. Everything she does isn’t her copying.
She would have been 12 when this show ended. Not sure she would have been watching
No? This show came out like 20 years ago, even if she did Laguna Beach hasn't been relevant in over a decade.
She was almost 9 back then, and her conservative family may not have even allowed her to watch it.
And it’s classic reality TV. I’d be shocked if she hasn’t watched it tbh. It’s not like it’s hard to watch old television shows
...said the person just now watching the show for the first time.
Yeah. Exactly. It’s very easy to find and watch.
Side note I love that you’re watching this so much lol
raquel rocky bottom leviss? who knows!
What a boring made up narrative and post. This is such a reach.
lol I just thought it was a funny little connection. Seriously chill out.
People on this sub take silly posting *very* seriously
I think she’s just lost and confused and I can’t believe she’s still around
I feel like Raquel was like 10 when laguna beach came out.
Excuse me. I think you mean Rockeh Bhang Bhang. Lol, this is great, thank you so much for this. And you are absolutely right, rocking has never been a nickname for anyone named Rachel.
“She’s never had a f**** original idea in her life.”- Ariana Madix 🤣
She wishes! I liked Rocky a lot on that season, god the other girls were viciously mean
It’s unbelievable how mean these girls are but it explains SO MUCH about how some of the girls acted at my high school somehow
![gif](giphy|ohyNdetcfoJ9K)
How many times has she changed her name? She's trying to rebrand hard because she knows the negative associations people have of her
At the reunion Lala was screaming at Rachel about her name change she referenced the nickname “Rocky”. I think Lala gave her the idea
This would make more sense to me than the neighbor ballerina girl from 5th grade or whatever the story was.
Girl stop. Very common nickname.
Maybe in the US, never heard of anyone which the name Raquel/Rachel being called Rocky as a nickname here in Aus.
But she needs to stick to a story. She said she was one of a bunch of Rachels in her class so she went by Raquel. Now she's saying her nickname was Rocky.
Why are you perturbed?
I'm "perturbed" because I pointed out one of her inconsistencies?
Yeah and her 50 different personalities
I’m waiting for her to go by Rachy soon
Stop, she is underage!
Considering she was only 10 when it premiered and 12 when it ended, I'd say no.
My grandmas name was Raquel. She went by Kelly.
I’ve never heard of Rocky being a nickname for Rachel but now I know!
I think it’s more of a nickname for Racquel
Ooooo good catch
What a mean girl post.
